Their website is the worst I have ever seen, and totally useless. The place is really nice, very contemporary and cool. There is a whole restaurant and bar right in the lobby! I was told you can order food and have it brought to you in the movie, but because there are no kind of updates of handy information like the main access to the free parking is blocked by construction on the website, I used the 40 minutes I had to eat, driving in circles trying to figure out how to get to the theater. I could see it, I drove past it 2 times, but because of construction and one way streets, I could not get to it. Finally gave up and paid $7 to park at the convention center across the street. We just barely made it in for the start of the movie. The inept ticket person made a lame attempt to explain how to get food in the movie, and was useless. The theater was really nice. The seats were big and comfy, the screen is huge, and the sound is fantastic. Because my experience of actually watching the movie was so good, I would call this an almost average experience, certainly not worth the trip all the way to Hartford. There is the potential for a great experience but nobody there seems to really care much.

The location is excellent for many reasons. 1) The parking garage is in the same building and Spotlight will stamp your ticket so you only pay $2 for parking. 2) Not your average swill. The bar offers an excellent selection of finer cocktails and decent wines, along with a lovely choice for happy hour noshing. 3) Its not the kind of place where people drop off their kids/teens and drive away. Audience is primarily adults. Big plus in my book! 4) The people who work here are very nice and really good at their jobs. 5) There are several other top notch restaurants are bars on the same block, making this an excellent bar/restaurant hopping destination. 6) Movie showtimes are convenient. 7) You can bring your drink into the theater with you. Cons: The only drawback is the candy options. I really wish theyd upgrade to finer selections.....Ghirardelli, or Vosges chocolate....higher quality sweets in general would be so lovely!

We drive from Vernon to go to the movies at Front St. quite often.The seats are very comfortable,the sound and picture quality is outstanding.Validate your parking ticket and it only costs 2 dollars to park at the garage.Dont have to deal with the crowds and rude,loud people you encounter at the multiplex theaters.Get a Living Social or Groupon coupon and tickets are 6-8 dollars with a small bag of popcorn. They have a restaurant/bar inside as well.If you are tired of the bigger theater places like Buckland,you can try here.I enjoy going to a place where I dont have to see everyone attached to their cellphones,this is it.

Went to the H.S.Stadium 4 theater for the first time. (Watch MAD MAX: FURY ROAD.) Very well-hidden this little gem. Managed to find the theater. Very well-organized and clean. Had trouble getting access to my ticket. However, made it on time to view the flick. (10/10 for MM:Fury Road.) One of the best theaters that I been to in CT. Pure quality of sound and picture, the seats very comfortable and roomy to stretched out. Thx for making my first visit outstanding!

Great little theater. Want to see Star Wars and not interested in dealing with crowds? This is your place. The seats are comfortable, sound is crisp, everything is like 2 years old and still looks new. Highly recommended... Just dont eat at the Bistro part. Its expensive and the quality is so so.

Great interior, I really like the aesthetics and the comfort of the seats. Im not so sure but I think theyre leather. Their nachos and cheese is pretty horrible though. Theres salt on the nachos (which have no flavor so all you taste is salt) and also salt in the cheese

Very clean and nice place. Went here for a UFC event and loved it. Its a much better alternative to a loud, crowded bar. Easy on/Easy off the highway. Hope they keep doing UFC events! A little more promotion would help but Ill visit here again no matter what.

Great happy hour specials and you can bring your food and drink into the theaters! While its a small cinema, there are good quality stadium seats in each theater. Spotlight even offers 3D movies. Prices are very reasonable, especially $6 discount Tuesdays.

Love this theatre!! Clean, modern, comfortable, never crowded and noisy, great selection of drinks (alcohol from their bar) and chef-prepared food which you can order and bring with you inside, great prices, and great location. What more can you ask for?

I like it here. Big theater, they serve alcohol, and if you kill time at the bar and realize that your show is about to start, you can ask the bartender for a plastic cup and bring your drink in there. Great cocktails, too.

Smaller theaters with nice seating (8/10). The hilight is that you can order snacks or full entrees from the attached restaurant including alcohol drinks (wine, beer, mixers) to take comsume in the theater.

I recently learned theyre sitting on 60 million dollars like some kind of Dragon. Where is it going? for 60 million I want gold plated seats and my Drinks served in a Jewel encrusted Chalice. Make it happen.

Love this place! We got there a little before happy hours end, but the bartender was so nice. He said we can order & set up foods & wine on a trade & bring into the theater! One plus thing...No crying kids!

Above average food selection, I like this theater because you can get more than just popcorn and candy like most theaters. They have a full kitchen and bar. Theater isnt busy as well

Brand new theater, the seats are very comfortable, as well as almost everything from the bistro can be order for the theater. You can also bring drinks from the bar into the theater.

Great beer, awesome movie selection, and its just the place to be. Never seen football on the big screen! Always check this place for events because theres always something going on.

Convenient spot to catch a movie when in downtown Hartford. The most comfortable seats of any theatre Ive been to and you can have beer and more with your popcorn during the movie!

Great food and beer options, parking at the garage next door is only $2 validated. Our food was honestly just OK, but being able to drink and eat at your seat makes up for it

Fun movie/bar/food experience. Small theaters allow all seats to be decent. Make sure you check where their parking is before using the convention center parking garage!

Love the location, options to purchase alcohol although you may have to park in the lot but if you ask cashier you can get your parking ticket validated and pay less.

The speakers for theater 2 were only in the front and the lights are too bright on the stairs. So distracting, horrible way to see a star wars film. Chairs are comfy
